Loss of Kobe Bryant will be acutely felt at Hall of Fame induction
Quote: |
It wasn’t supposed to be like this. The 2020 induction class into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame was going to be one of the most star-studded in history, with Kobe Bryant, Tim Duncan and Kevin Garnett all expected to be selected for induction in what is the first year of eligibility for each.
But after Sunday’s fatal helicopter crash that claimed the lives of Bryant, his 13-year-old daughter Gianna and seven others, the tone of this year’s group of inductees will be much more somber. |

Unnecessary risks. The pilot had to get special clearance to fly in foggy weather that even the LAFD wouldn't not fly in because of how dangerous the weather was. Chopper hit the hillside at 184 mph---meaning he didn't slow down at all most likely because he couldn't see the hill until it was too late.
Sad that Kobe and 8 others are dead, but it could have easily been avoided by driving or flying. Reminds me of JFK, Jr.
